What if we stopped waiting for a girl’s first period to start the conversation?
In today’s episode of Wild Flow, I’m diving into why our daughters and the girls in our lives—deserve more than just a“talk” about periods at the last minute. They deserve a sacred rite of passage, and they deserve it before they bleed.
This episode is an invitation to remember the power of menstrual education not just as information—but as initiation. We’ll explore the deeper purpose behind First Moon Circles®, how reclaiming ritual at menarche can ripple generational healing outward and upward, and why menstrual empowerment is leadership in action.
Whether you're a mother, teacher, mentor, or a woman who remembers how it felt to go through puberty alone—this is for you.
Because it’s never too early to begin healing. And the younger we begin, the deeper the roots grow.
In this episode, I share:
- Why we don’t have to wait for a girl's first bleed to start supporting her
- What a First Moon Circle really offers beyond education (spoiler: it’s a rite of passage)
- The cultural cost of menstrual shame and invisibility
- How these circles ripple out to heal mothers, grandmothers, and communities
- Why so many women are feeling the call to become facilitators right now
- The importance of celebration at menarche—not just coping tools
- How we train and support women to become menstrual educators even if they’ve never done this work before

Ruthie's Table 4
For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
